I have my car maintained regularly as recommended. The last time I took my car to the dealership they recommended to have a trans and power steering flush. Is this really needed.

Hi there,

this is the only way to remove all the harmful deposits from these systems, over the years metal from wearing components are suspended in the oil, this is not really desirable , filters help but the flush cleans out the system, get it done, it is a good idea.
